Prince Harry wants to be an astronaut
Britain’s intrepid Prince Harry wants to be the first Royal in space and wants to undergo Nasa training, according to a media report. “It’s his dream to be the first Royal in space,” the Sun quoted a Royal source as saying.
Army pilot Harry, 26, is a Star Trek fan and “obsessed with space”, the report quoted his friends as saying. They say he has already asked British business magnate Sir Richard Branson’s son Sam for a seat on one of the first Virgin Galactic sub-orbital flights.
But he hopes to become an honorary member of the elite US space programme after returning from Afghanistan next year. Harry needs a minimum of 1,000 hours of advanced jet engine flight time to be considered by Nasa.
Nasa training in Houston, Texas, would include Scuba Microgravity — performing tasks underwater in space suits for up to four hours at a time.

Hudson now wears size zero
London: Jennifer Hudson’s determination to loose weight seems to be still on as the actress reportedly fits into a size zero now.
The 29-year-old singer-actress shed 80lbs and went down a massive five dress sizes in recent years but has managed to shrink down even more, reported Daily Mail. Talk show presenter Joy Behar who accidentally met Hudson on a shopping trip, said she overheard a salesperson tell the Dreamgirls star that she was a size zero.
Behar later asked Hudson how it felt to be the much coveted but controversially small size.
“I feel like they’re talking to someone else,” she replied. The Oscar-winning actress became a spokesman for Weight Watchers in April 2010, eight months after giving birth to her son David Jr.
She initially dropped from size 16 to a size four through diet and regular workout sessions with personal trainer Harley Pasternak. —PTI
